have an ending that will be good for anyone. there's a few programs that aren't affected by this. >> it affect so many aspects. >> reporter: it does. the only programs that won't be affected would be social security and medicare. but that's been the argument that there may be too many entitlement programs and that's costing us. >> linda yee, thank you. the sequestration is the most immediate challenge for new secretary of state john kerry. this afternoon i sat down with our country's first female secretary of state madeline albright. i asked her how kerry should handle cuts to humanitarian aid should they happen. >> he did in fact -- i was interested he made his first speech on the subject on how it tied our hands and hurt national security. it is important to make sure there's enough money and people to work on the security issues. >> albright says the state department budget now is $51

billion. just like that, democrats no longer have complete and total control of the state legislature. senator michael rubio of shafter announced he is resigning immediately to take a job with oil giant chevron. now democrat control 26 seat in the senate, that's one shy of the two-thirds majority they need to pass tax changes or override vetoes. >> one vote makes a difference. and that's exactly what's happened within the senate and i'm sure people are talking on both side of the aisle as i speak about who the right candidate is for that senate district. >> it's not clear who might succeed rubio but democrats out number republicans in his san joaquin valley district. california's attitude toward undocumented workers seems to be drastically changing. a new field poll shows that the vast majority of voters favor letting them become citizens under certain conditions. kpix 5 reporter elissa harrington on why this change

of heart. elissa. >> reporter: hi, allen. this is the most support for a plan like this in the 7 years the field poll has been keeping track. >> every day i worry about my mom. >> reporter: her mother came to the united states from mexico more than 20 years ago but she is still an illegal worker. we met her in san francisco says she constantly fears her mom might be deported. >> she apparently can't get no license, any of that so we just have been driving a car and everything is always risky. >> reporter: her mother is among 11 million immigrants here illegally in the united states today. a new field poll shows overwhelming support to give legal status to people like her. 90% of californians back a path to citizenship. this favors letting immigrants who have lived here for a long time stay and become citizens if they have a job, learn english and pay taxes. >> today's poll shows overwhelming support from californians for immigration reform. >> reporter: the aclu says

about a quarter of the 11 million this would affect live right here in california. >> whether they're farm workers in the central valley or tech following workers in silicon valley, we all will benefit from fixing this immigration system that's broken and providing that road map to citizenship. >> reporter: people i talked to in san francisco shared a similar sentiment. >> i agree. if you are doing something positive, everybody deserves equal rights. >> very important for our economy. i don't know what we would do without our immigrants. >> obviously some flaws that may be more undocumented workers might land up in here. >> reporter: despite the support for a path to citizenship, the field poll also shows 65% of californians want more patrols at the u.s./mexico border. 57% favor penalties for hiring illegal immigrants and almost half want those here illegally deported. immigration reform is a hot button issue in washington.

senators are working on a bill and an unfinished proposal by the obama administration suggests a path that would take 13 years. in san francisco, elissa harrington, kpix 5. >> thank you. one of the high-speed rail's biggest enemies could become an ally. kpix 5's don knapp says that's only if neighbors on the peninsula get their way. don. >> reporter: liz, it's not that folks here in the peninsula are opposed to the concept of high- speed rail. what they are opposed to is a prospect of having streets and neighborhoods torn up for years while they expand the right of way. now there's legislation that could resolve that. a caltrain rolls into palo alto on a side of right of way. now after a century of development communities have moved up to the edge of the tracks. here at alma and churchill palo alto high's athletic fields and stadium border one side of the

tracks. the busy road and compact neighborhoods border the other. expanding the right of way would take them out. that's what california's high- speed rail authority has in mind. two inside tracks for caltrains, two outside tracks for high-speed rail. opponents had hoped to kill that plan. >> currently, the position of the city council is that high- speed rail should be terminated because it is not what was portrayed to the voters back in 2008. >> reporter: besides the expansion, the project was originally priced at $33 billion. now it's $68 billion. but it's not the price tag that draws the fire of atherton, menlo park, palo alto, belmont, brisbane and burlingame. it's the land lost to eminent domain and the cost an inconvenience of years of construction. >> the lack of credibility that they brought to the table and the lack of integrity that has been challenged by the people that live on the peninsula and the original proposal -- we were concerned that what we saw was not something that anyone in this community would accept. >> reporter: now state senator jerry hill has a legislative

proposal that could ease the opposition and put peninsula communities behind the high- speed rail project. it guarantees money for electricification of caltrain, limits the right of way to two tracks through most of the peninsula, and gives caltrain veto authority if high-speed rail ever tries to put in four tracks. senator hill believes his legislation will pass and put communities behind high-speed rail. liz? >> thank you, don. the crane that collapsed underneath the new eastern span of the bay bridge has a new temporary home. mobile5's ken bastida found the twisted metal a few hours ago. >> reporter: we asked caltrans if they knew where the crane was, they told us officially no. they had no idea where it was. so we went looking and actually found it about 200 yards behind their complex over there in oakland. if you take a look at the video you can see it's a pretty big twisted piece of metal. you know, indicative of what happened yesterday. and they are still trying to

get to the bottom of it officially. they have a number of inspectors looking at it. we also found some people from american bridge floor the company involved in the mishap. the contractors if you will looking over the structure and trying to figure out what happened. i speak to andrew gordon at caltrans today and he told me that no work will be done until this inspection and investigation are completed. >> my understanding is that right now, the contractor is working with the coast guard. it's unclear whether osha has become involved or what stage they will become involved and i'm sure they are going to be look at everything in terms of, you know, the equipment to the workers who were out there and kind of what the various steps of the protocol was and where all the safety measures followed and where things kind of fell apart. >> reporter: gordon says it will take about a month to complete the investigation. in the meantime, work continues on the new section of the bay bridge and there is no delay in

the opening. they tell us that is still on labor day. live from treasure island, i'm ken bastida, kpix 5. thank you. other bay area headlines a fourth person is charged with the murder of a millionaire. alleged prostitute is accused of killing ravi kumra in his mansion in november. three men already face murder charges while another woman is charged with being an accessory to murder. police identified a woman killed in an early-morning car accident in redwood city. a 20-year-old woman crashed into a hydrant on east bayshore road and thrown out of the car. the cause of the crash is under investigation. things are back to normal on the city college campus in san francisco a near 24-hour sit-in. dozens of students camped inside the administration building overnight. they called on the chancellor to do more to keep the school from losing its accreditation. they ended their protest after

the san jose woman who lied about finding a finger in a bowl of wendy's chili is in hot water again. mark sayre says this time she is accused of cooking up a story to protect her son. mark. >> reporter: allen, this is a

serious case. anna ayala facing a felony charge in this latest case and that infamous chili finger situation is already playing a role in how this case is being handled. 47 yearly anna ayala shielded her face from the cameras her son 26-year-old guadalupe junior reyes appeared in court on crutches. she is known around the nation after making up a story in 2005 about finding a severed finger in a bowl of chili at wendy's and her older did sister is sad to see this again. >> this is not good. she is my little sister. you know? i worry. i worry. >> reporter: in this latest case guadalupe reyes is charged with being a felon in possession of a firearm and shooting himself in the foot then to cover up what happened, ayala allegedly lying to police and making up a story about her son being shot by two men for no apparent reason. police say ayala gave a vivid description of the suspects and

even a possible name and police almost arrested that man before determining the whole story was a fake. >> they gave pretty specific information to the point to where we actually thought we had a suspect. we interviewed this person. we conducted various forensic testing as far as gunshot residue goes and so treated it like the real deal. eventually we were able to eliminate that person as a suspect. >> reporter: for now, a judge set bail at $150,000 for both reyes and her son. and ayala's role in the 2005 case was a factor in that decision. >> it's relevant at this point for purposes of bail based on the fact that, you know, as i mentioned she has a history of manipulating the system for her own gain and we feel she is a flight risk. >> she is a good person and she is my sister and i love her and i'll support her to the end. >> reporter: now, this whole case started back in october but police say it took them so long to investigate because ayala was simply so specific

and so convincing in her description of that's nonexistent suspects down to the fact that one of the suspects has big ears. that person doesn't exist. >> the chili case went on for a long time too because she gave a lot of details they had to check. >> reporter: indeed. but this time, they're on to the m.o. they are clear the cases are separate and it's a notoriety about the chili finger case that doesn't have a lot do with this at this point. >> mark sayre, thank you. when google set up shop in mountain view it became part of a long tech legacy in silicon valley, a legacy that's now surfacing as toxic gas. you're looking at google buildings qd6 and qd7 that opened in june. now, back in the late '70s and '80s, this area was home to companies like fairchild semiconductor. they used a mix of chemicals

including tce to make chips. that contaminated the water table and escaping up through the ground in the form of toxic vapors found in the buildings. those google offices don't sit on an island. they are right across the street from a neighborhood packed with homes and apartments. now some of them have the same problems. at bruce's house the fan never stops blowing. >> my family has owned this property for over 40 years. >> reporter: last year, the epa tested his home for the same toxic gasses discovered at the nearby google buildings. the results in his home? >> up to 18 micrograms per cubic meter of tce. >> reporter: the epa's safety standard? >> one per cubic meter. >> reporter: he knows all about the toxic chemistry. he was an engineer at fairchild for 12 years. >> those processed wafers. >> reporter: now they are sloshing around under his

neighborhood and the epa isn't sure how they got there or how far they have spread. >> we're currently determining the extent of that contamination. >> reporter: while the epa tries to nail down the toxic plume, contaminated sites are getting state-of-the-art filtering systems to pump the gas away from offices and homes. >> this runs all the way through here. and here are the pumps. extracts all the fume. >> the fans and pipes give him peace of mind. >> want people not to freak out. >> i have been here for 40 years. nothing happened to me, i'm still kicking. >> as for the office buildings, google says workers' safety is a chief priority and it is satisfied with the venting measures now in place. as for the neighborhood, the epa says it will work to keep residents informed as more is learned about the extent of the contamination. we are getting a first look at pg&e new device for

inspecting natural gas pipeline. it may look like a basic construction project but it's actually a high-tech wireless camera. now, unlike other robotic cameras, this one goes inside gas transmission lines to look for erosions or other defects without interrupting the service. the $800,000 project is part of the utility's effort to improve safety after the deadly 2010 san bruno pipeline explosion. paul, it seems like we have been saying the same thing over and over again this week except for monday of course but another gorgeous beautiful nice clear warm day. >> one word, ditto, we're done.
